Photo Essay: Walking in Winterby Thomas Jay Oord

Thomas Jay Oord is a theologian, philosopher, and scholar of multi-disciplinary studies. He is the author or editor of more than twenty books and professor at Northwest Nazarene University, Nampa, Idaho. He is also a spectacular photographer and lives in one of the most naturally beautiful areas of North America—especially if the untrammeled, pristine vistas of field and stream, mountain and lake are your aesthetic. In this photo essay, walk with Tom through the wilds of his home country, taking a moment to reflect on all the spectacularly striking things winter does to the landscape.
